Happy Birthday!

Nov 5, 2005

It really doesn’t seem like it’s been a whole year, but BA is one year
old today. (I suppose it seems like even less time when there have only
been 3 entries in the last 8 months of that.)

It’s amazing to me still that I’m someone’s dad, because he’s just
there, and needs to be taken care of, and I can hardly remember a time
without him. The changes are fast in the grand scheme of things, but
they sneak up on you when you’re right there, day in and day out. Oh,
sure, he walks now, and he’s got teeth (three, and another coming in),
and he babbles all the time, and all of that he learned and developed.
But it’s not until you look through the baby book that it really hits
you how much of a little person he is now, and how different he is from
just a few months ago.
